View of a half submerged automobile in the flooding Purgatoire River, Trinidad, Colorado. Water reaches to just below the open windows and the angle of the vehicle affords a look at the upholstry. A field behind the car is also under water. A single story gable roofed stone dwelling is on the high ground and scrub dotted hills are in the background.
